本文就水运工艺学的性质、作用、对象、发展以及与其他学科的关系等,发表了作者个人的看法。水运工艺学是不是一门独立的新的学科,我们希望按照“百家争鸣”的方针,有更多的同志来进行研究,发表意见,以活跃我院的学术空气,促进水运科学发展。 This paper presents the author’s personal opinions on the nature, function, object, development and relationship with other disciplines of craft. Water technology is not an independent new discipline. We hope that more comrades will carry out research and express their opinions in accordance with the principle of “one hundred schools of thought” to stimulate the academic atmosphere in our hospital and promote the scientific development of water transport.
